HARRIET
Harriet - The Piano Sessions
Harriet performs intimate versions of her favourite original songs and some specially selected covers accompanied by her incredible pianist. This concert series is in support of Harriet's upcoming live album of the same name, which will be exclusively available on CD this Spring.
Harriet is a British-born singer songwriter whose music is deeply inspired by the likes of Fleetwood Mac, Carole King and The Carpenters, as well as artists such as Adele and Lana Del Rey. She has recently completed a series of sell-out headline UK tours, as well as opening for Michael Bolton on his recent Arena Tour, finishing up at London's Royal Albert Hall.
Her self-titled debut album, recorded in London with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and produced by Steve Anderson (Kylie Minogue/Leona Lewis) was a personal expression of loss and love, drawing inspiration from the warmth of the 1960s & 70s soundscape. She is currently working on her next studio album in Stockholm, Sweden.
Harriet is passionately supported by BBC Radio 2 in the UK and is frequently championed by prestigious hosts including Graham Norton, Paul O'Grady and Gaby Roslin. Her backing from the station led to the first single from her debut album being playlisted and resulted in the release of an EP, which was exclusively recorded for Alan Carr's BBC Radio 2 "Summer Escape" show in 2018. Further afield, she has gained immense support from radio stations in America and across Europe, including from the legendary American Billboard editor and Sirius XM presenter, Larry Flick who asserted passionately that Harriet is "an artist that can and will change the world."

DOMINIC KIRWAN (PLUS SUPPORT ACT)
2014 marked a massive milestone in the career of Omagh singer Dominic Kirwan, 25 years since the talented entertainer signed a record deal with Ritz records and gave to the public his debut album "Try a Little Kindness". 25 years plus now and the story continues Dominic remaining one of the most popular singers touring, performing and recording with a fan base of all ages throughout the world who enjoy his wonderful stage presence and performances. He took to the stage of Omagh Town Hall to dance in a Feis at six years of age and that has been his home basically ever since. From playing the pubs and clubs of his homeland to the cream of the UK’s concert Halls and Theatres its been a stunning rise, a magical journey indeed through the ranks of this business we call "show" for Dominic.
Impossible to pigeon hole since he broke on to the circuit as a professional singer, Dominic from the County of Tyrone where some of Ireland's greatest names in music have come from, has been entertaining professionally since 1989. Audiences big and small of all ages have enjoyed the genial talent that is Mr Kirwan, from the Shetlands to Lands' End, from Malin to Mizzen with the USA, Australia, New Zealand and a fair bit of everywhere else in between thrown in for good measure. Dominic has been a constant on the stages of dance halls, clubs and theatres with a brand of show that has ebbed and flowed but never let the loyal fans that have followed the former car parts salesman, down. Dominic has been described as the ultimate entertainer, at ease with songs such as "Like Father Like Son" to "Noreen Bawn" from "Absent Friends" to "Some Girls". The show is an eclectic mix of songs that just sit begging to be sung in Kirwan's own style.

MARTIN & ELIZA CARTHY
The good Doctor Martin Carthy and his twice Mercury nominated daughter Eliza Carthy, join forces to perform songs from their first duo album ever, a new CD of traditional material entitled "THE ELEPHANT", released in May 2014 on Topic Records.
Martin is a legendary ballad singer and guitarist who has influenced a generations of artists, including Bob Dylan and Paul Simon, while Eliza has been twice-nominated for the Mercury Music Prize and a multiple-award winner at the BBC Radio Two Folk awards.
For more than 50 years Martin Carthy has been one of folk music's greatest innovators, one of its best loved, most enthusiastic and, at times, most quietly controversial of figures. His skill, stage presence and natural charm have won him many admirers, not only from within the folk scene, but also far beyond it. Trailblazing musical partnerships with, amongst others, Steeleye Span, Dave Swarbrick and his award-winning wife (Norma Waterson) and daughter Eliza Carthy have resulted in more than 40 albums, but Martin has only recorded 10 solo albums, of which the much anticipated Waiting for Angels (Topic TSCD527) was the latest. Whether in the folk clubs (which he continues to champion), on the concert stage or making TV appearances (he was the subject of the acclaimed "Originals" music documentary strand on BBC 2) – there are few roles that Martin Carthy hasn't played.
He's a ballad singer, a ground-breaking acoustic and electric-guitarist and an authoritative interpreter of newly composed material. He always prefers to follow an insatiable musical curiosity rather than cash in on his unrivalled position. Perhaps, most significant of all, are his settings of traditional songs with guitar, which have influenced a generation of artists, including Bob Dylan and Paul Simon, on both sides of the Atlantic.
"Arguably the greatest English folk song performer, writer, collector and editor of them all" - Q Magazine
Eliza Carthy is undoubtedly one of the most impressive and engaging performers of her generation. Twice nominated for the Mercury Prize and winner of innumerable other accolades over a 20 year career, Eliza has performed and recorded with a diverse array of artists including, Paul Weller, Rufus and Martha Wainwright, Patrick Wolf and Bob Neuwirth. More than most, Eliza Carthy has revitalised folk music and captured the most hardened of dissenters with intelligent, charismatic and boundary-crossing performance.
Eliza grew up immersed in the world of traditional music. She still divides her time between touring and recording with her legendary parents, Martin Carthy and Norma Waterson as well as engaging in numerous pioneering solo and band projects, including work with Pere Ubu and Melanie Challenger, an artist in residence in Antarctica. In what has become something of a parallel career, Eliza has co-presented the BBC Radio 3 World Music Awards, been a regular guest-presenter on the BBC Radio 2 Mark Radcliffe Show and has made many appearances on BBC TVs "Later with Jools". In her own right, Eliza has been the subject of an hour long ITV documentary ("Heaven & Earth") and "My Music" on Channel 5. Comedian and writer Stewart Lee describes Eliza as "Not the Messiah, but a very naughty girl".

FRIDAY 2nd FEBRUARY 2018
THE BLACKHEART ORCHESTRA - VILLAGE HALLS TOUR
Award-winning British songwriters, composers and multi-instrumentalists Chrissy Mostyn and Rick Pilkington are The Blackheart Orchestra.
One of the must-see bands of 2018, the pioneering folktronica duo blend musical styles seamlessly sidestepping boundaries to create music huge enough to fill a cathedral. Always producing something beyond all easily marketed genres, their multi-instrumental sonic landscapes have always been too unpredictable and adventurous for the mainstream.
Fusing acoustic fragility and pulsing electronica, The Blackheart Orchestra bring together stringed instrument dexterity with 80’s synthesisers and clear classical influences. Often mistaken for an 8-piece band on first listen, they are found on stage continuously changing from electric and acoustic guitars, bowed guitar, piano, organ, bass and electronic percussion to vintage synthesisers, omnichord and melodica in a complex choreographed weave of musical moods and textures. One moment their sound is minimal and molecular, the next a mountain-like wall of sound with vast symphonic climaxes.
Their four critically acclaimed albums and mesmerising live shows have won them obsessive worldwide fans, plaudits from musical giants and placements on TV commercials and films. Chrissy Mostyn’s haunting vocals, the Mike Oldfield-like multi-instrumental playing of Rick Pilkington plus their fearless combination of conventional and unconventional all reflect their self-created universe where art meets sound and words paint pictures that take you with them on their deep musical journey into the human psyche.

ALBERT LEE
Albert was treated one Christmas to a Hofner President acoustic arch-top, and from there he never looked back. Spurred on by the recordings of Jimmy Bryant, Buddy Holly and The Crickets, Gene Vincent and The Everly Brothers, Albert left school at sixteen and turned pro, getting regular gigs at the 2 i's Coffee Bar and The Flamingo Club in London - first with Bob Xavier’s band, and then with The Jury. He replaced Jimmy Page in The Crusaders before joining Chris Farlowe and The Thunderbirds in ‘64.
He soon found his favoured guitar of choice, the Fender Telecaster, whilst everyone else was playing Gibson Les Pauls and Stratocasters. Albert admitted to feeling like the odd man out as his appreciation for American country artists grew, and he formed the band Country Fever. He began working with Poet & The One Man Band, who later turned into Heads, Hands & Feet when Jerry Donahue and Pat Donaldson (of Country Fever) were replaced by Albert and Chas Hodges. Their self-titled debut album featured the original “Country Boy”, now synonymous with Albert’s trademark picking style.
The U.S eventually beckoned, and Albert began doing session work and briefly toured with The Crickets in 1973. He moved to Los Angeles, where he met his idols Phil and Don Everly, and Don invited Albert to play with him and pedal steel legend Buddy Emmons. After working on Don’s second album, Albert left to join Joe Cocker’s band and was replaced by Lindsey Buckingham."

Expect him also to recall some of his award winning TV jingles from the 70's such as Cadbury's Finger Of Fudge, along with the huge hits of Manfred Mann...

THE BUDDY PRESLEY SHOW
In 1959 Buddy Holly found an inexperienced pilot to fly him into a deadly blizzard... he never touched down. When, Elvis Presley left the army he fulfilled his 30 film movie contract with Paramount which kept him out of live stage performance for another eight years.
Two of the greatest rock n roll performers of all time never graced the local, municipal stages in the early 60's. A tragedy and a business deal deprived their fans of the intimate, raw performances, they so dearly craved.
Until now...
If Buddy had not got on that plane and Elvis had walked away from that contract, things would have been very different. For the first time, see the music of Buddy & Elvis the way it might have been.
A bare bones scratch band of seasoned backline players are joined by The Harmonaires, session backing vocalists with a love and feeling for the music. Add the amazing performance of Dave B, an aficionado and fan of these two musical greats and you have the ultimate musical experience.
For the first time ever, see the two greatest influences on rock and roll touring together. Ladies & Gentlemen, I give you; The Buddy Presley Band!"
